The Glory King
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
The earth belongs to the Lord,
And all the fullness thereof;
All of whom dwell are adored,
Sending His blessings of love.
For He has founded the seas,
Established upon rivers;
Created the birds and trees,
Thrives on all He delivers.
Who shall ascend to the Lord?
And stand in His holy place;
Who can be in one accord,
in front of Him face to face.
Who is he having clean hands,
And an uncorrupted heart;
Honoring all His commands,
Having a tongue to impart.
Who has never had deceit,
His soul not bear false witness;
Never tried to ever cheat,
But tones spiritual fitness.
He will receive the blessings,
Salvation from the Lord God;
Being righteously that brings,
For remaining as unflawed.
The generation that will seek,
Seeking the face of the Lord;
Are those who are humbly meek,
And remain in one accord.
Lift up your heads O you gates,
Lifting up O ancient doors;
The King of glory awaits,
For the ones that He adores.
Who is the King of glory?
As the strong and mighty Lord;
The Scriptures tell His story,
That believers can afford.
